Moving tube equipment


I will be relocating some tube based amps soon. Since I'm doing the packing and driving (about an hour and 15 minutes) any thoughts on just leaving the tubes intact and packing carefully so the units cannot shift.  After unpacking just check to make the tubes are still properly seated.  The amps are not auto biased so having the right tube in the correct socket matters.  Yes I'm just being lazy and would rather not pull the tubes and mark etc....
Thanks

@wolf_garcia you forgot the inevitable beer spilled on the amp as well... they aren’t that fragile...

However, Miller is right about cleaning all of your connections. That can make a significant difference if it’s never been done. All metal surfaces will eventually corrode to some degree, which can really make a difference in SQ...
